If you prioritize premium sound quality during air travel and want top-notch noise isolation, the Bang and Olufsen Beoplay H95 could be your choice, as they are described as best in class for travel and excellent in noise isolation. However, if you're looking for better value, the Sennheiser Accentum Plus is less expensive and offers very good overall sound quality and noise isolation, along with a longer battery life for extended use. Both models support AptX Adaptive for better audio quality over Bluetooth and have a similar accessory package; but the Beoplay H95 is heavier and might be less comfortable over long periods compared to the lighter Sennheiser Accentum Plus.
